Description

Pearl Horseface

Introduction The Pearl Horseface, a captivating breed of goldfish, is renowned for its distinctive pearlescent scales and elegant, elongated body. With its serene demeanor and stunning appearance, it’s a popular choice for both novice and experienced aquarists.

Scientific Name Carassius auratus

Water Quality Pearl Horsefaces thrive in clean, well-oxygenated water. Regular water changes are essential to maintain optimal water quality.

pH Level 6.5-7.5

GH Level 5-15 dGH

KH Level 2-8 dKH

Feeding These fish are omnivores and can be fed a varied diet of high-quality fish flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods like brine shrimp and bloodworms.

Tank Mates Pearl Horsefaces are generally peaceful and can be kept with other peaceful fish species of similar size. Avoid aggressive or nipping tank mates.

Substrates and Tank Decorations A fine-grained substrate like sand or smooth gravel is suitable. Provide plenty of hiding spots and swimming space with rocks, plants, and driftwood.

Suitable Plants Sturdy, live plants like Java Fern and Anubias can withstand the grazing of these fish.

Sexing and Breeding Sexing Pearl Horsefaces can be challenging for beginners. Males often develop breeding tubercles on their gills during spawning season. Breeding can be induced by lowering water temperature and increasing water changes.

Maximum Size and Longevity These fish can reach a maximum size of around 10 inches and have a lifespan of 10-15 years with proper care.

Behavior Pearl Horsefaces are generally peaceful and graceful swimmers. They can be observed exploring the tank and interacting with their surroundings.

Things to Consider Before Buying

  • Tank Size: Ensure your tank is adequately sized to accommodate their adult size and provide ample swimming space.
  • Water Quality: Maintain stable water parameters to prevent stress and disease.
  • Diet: A varied diet is essential for optimal health and growth.
  • Tank Mates: Choose compatible tank mates to avoid aggression and stress.

General Information Pearl Horsefaces are relatively hardy fish that are suitable for beginners. They are beautiful and easy to care for, making them a great addition to any freshwater aquarium.
